this experiment was conducted in order to determine the effects of different dietary growth promoters on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in male broiler chickens. a total of 360 male broiler chicks (day-old ross 308 strain) were distributed into a completely randomized design (crd) having 6 dietary treatments with four replicates and 15 birds in each replicate. experimental treatm...

three hundred eighteen young holstein bulls (initial bw = 375 ± 17.5 kg) were randomly allotted to one of six treatments in a completely randomized design for 56 d the treatments of which consisted of 1) the basal diet (control); 2) basal diet plus 30 mg of cu/kg of dm as cuso4; 3) basal diet plus 150 mg of zn/kg of dm as znso4; 4) basal diet plus chlortetracycline (200 mg/animal/d; ctc); 5) ba...

Background & Aim: This experiment was conducted to examine the effect of different levels of Echinacea purpurea (EP) in comparison with an antibiotic (flavofosfolipol) on total antioxidant activity (AOA) in serum of broiler chicks. Experimental: In this trial 240 one-day-old broiler chicks (Ross 308) were weighed and randomly assigned to the 5 treatment groups, each with 4 re...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of garlic powder (gp) black seed (bs) and plant premix (gp and bs) in the diet on broiler growth performance and intestinal morphology. included 480 hubbard broiler chicks(day-old). there were 4 treatment groups each consisting of 3 replicates. the four dietary treatments consisted of a control (basal diet), basal diet +0.5% gp, basal diet +0....

a total of 240 ross 308 day-old male broiler chicks within a completely randomized design were used in this experiment to evaluate the effects of dietary inclusion of turmeric powder and cinnamon powder on performance and some immune responses of broiler chickens. dietary treatments were as follow: a corn-soybean meal basal diet (control); basal diet + 10 ppm avilamycin; basal diet + 2.5 g/kg t...

in order to investigate the effects of artichoke leaf powder and vitamin eon performance, internal organs relative weight and some blood parameters, 240 day-old quails were assigned to four treatments including, basal diet (control), basal diet supplemented with levels of 1.5 and 3 percent of artichoke leaf powder and basal diet supplemented with 300 mg/kg diet vitamin e with four replicates an...

this experiment was conducted with broiler chickens to evaluate the effects of high and low swelling bentonite (natural and processed by cuso4) supplementation in diets on performance and carcass traits. a total of 300 day-old aryan broiler’s chicks were used in a completely randomized design with 5 dietary treatments. six pen replicates of 10 chicks were assigned to each of five dietary treatm...

This research was conducted to compare the effects of two medicinal plants (peppermint and aloe vera) and antibiotic growth promoter on ileum microflora population and growth performance of broiler chickens. In this experiment, 375 one-day old male broiler chickens (Ross 308) were used on a completely randomized design with 5 dietary treatments which were replicated 5 times with 15 birds per re...
